Happy new year! I hope you all had a restful and fun filled time over the holidays. I certainly did and despite doing nothing overly extravagant for New Year’s Eve I feel like I’ve got this year off on the right foot. As one year ends and a new one starts it seems that everyone becomes […]

I was cleaning the kitchen the other day and realised the bunch of bananas I’d bought had started going black and soft and they were going to end up in the bin because there was no way I could eat 6 bananas in one day! I hate wasting food so I figured I had to […]

So, Monday was my birthday and I have been contemplating things. I realised that this is the first year where I haven’t been particularly unhappy in some aspect of my life and haven’t been actively trying to change something. Last year was my job, the year before was a handful of things, as where the […]

The marvellous Emma Cook has sprinkled Topshop with some special Christmas magic and their Wonderland is looking pretty awesome. I don’t think there’s anything in here that I don’t want, but as usual, I’ve cherry picked my favourites to share with you. Everything is so cute, all your Christmas Shopping for your friends can be […]

After spending the weekend getting the flat Christmas ready I’ve been feeling really festive and I lit my mulled wine flavoured candle last night.

The OH and I moved into our new flat in March. It was brand spanking new and everywhere was white. It was the first time we’d properly lived together where all our stuff wasn’t crammed into one room and we soon realised that although we have ridiculous amounts of “stuff”, none of it was particularly […]

At the beginning of this week I mentioned my new baking mission and how I began with a birthday cake for my OH’s mum. I know, it was a bit of a big task to set myself when I’m just getting back in to the swing of this baking thing but there’s no time like the […]

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it before but I’m totally enthralled with this year’s Great British Bake Off and I’m totally split between loving Cathryn or James more! Can they both win please? Baking is something I’ve loved doing since I was young and I used to make fairy cakes and apple pie with […]

I really love getting post. It really makes my day when I go to that little blue box under the stairs in my building and find an envelope with my name on it. (I know what you’re thinking, but I rarely get bills and bank statements through the post, I get most of them online.) […]
